it seams from the man page that -m is to send a string in the message header. The man page says:<br />
<br />
&quot;&nbsp;-m message_type A Message-Type: line is added to the message header with the value of message_type.&quot;<br />

The -m option of rmail takes any string. The string given is then used to set the &quot;Message-Type:&quot; header in the mail envelop section (i.e. the message headers) of the message. So, the string can be anything you want and should match the format of <br />
the actual message passed to the rmail command. &nbsp;

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
